**Transcription for Educational Website**---**Problem 5**A: The ages of the thousands of residents of a retirement community are normally distributed with a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 4 years.**a. What proportion of this population is between 60 and 80?**\[Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}\]- For age 60: \[ Z = \frac{60 - 70}{4} = -2.5 \approx -6.21 \]- For age 80: \[ Z = \frac{80 - 70}{4} = 2.5 \approx 6.21 \]Calculation: 1 - (Probability of Z < -6.21 + Probability of Z > 6.21) = 0.99379Proportion = 6.21% + 6.21% = 12.24%**Conclusion:** 12.24% of the population is between 60 and 80 years old.---**b. If one sample of 45 residents is chosen at random, what is the probability that the sample mean age will be between 68.5 and 71.75?**\[Z = \frac{\bar{X} - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}\]- For age 68.5: \[ Z = \frac{68.5 - 70}{4/\sqrt{45}} = -5.87 \]- For age 71.75: \[ Z = \frac{71.75 - 70}{4/\sqrt{45}} = 6.6 \]Diagrams and detailed calculations show that this configuration results in a probability of a sample mean being in this range, with students marked -3 for incorrect graph plotting and -4 for calculation errors. **Note:** Exact Z scores, such as -6.21, indicate more precise computations and rounding in context.

Consider the following passage: I ran a regression, with many variables to predict the result of another variable which was the murder rate. One can see that lots of things, can cause the murder rate to increase or decrease. I tried to account for all the important factors, and those factors are the SAT scores, unemployment rate, and international migration per 1,000. The SAT score is, average combined total score participants did on the SAT exam. The unemployment rate is, "a measure of the prevalence of unemployment and it is calculated as a percentage by dividing the number of unemployed individuals by all individuals currently in the labor force." (Wikipedia) International migration per 1,000 is, the number of people who come into a state from other countries per 1,000 people who live in the state. After I run the regression I will look at the t scores and p values and I should hopefully conclude that international migration does not cause crime. Which writing mistakes, if any, did…
